Conver­sa­tion on the lived reali­ties of LGBTIQ+ refugees/ displaced persons in Eastern Africa

Conver­sa­tion with Āryā Jeipea Karijo and Frank Fabian Kagimu on the lived reali­ties of LGBTIQ+ refugees/displaced persons in Eastern Africa.
Āryā Jeipea Karijo is a narra­tive weaver, resear­cher, and journa­list, and volun­teers with the Trans­Queer Fund and Collec­tive in Kenya and the Safe Haven Collec­tive. Her support for queer organi­sa­tions spans advisory, strategic, organi­sa­tional design, and commu­ni­ca­tions. She ultim­ately describes herself as a human being, unders­tood through trans- and Afro-feminist lenses that shape her existence as a trans person and her way of loving as a lesbian.
Frank Fabian Kagimu is an Ugandan trans woman and feminist human-rights defender. She leads Prism Empower­ment and Develo­p­ment Initia­tive Uganda, driving global advocacy and crisis-response efforts for intern­ally displaced trans, gender-diverse, and LGBTQ+ persons in Uganda. Her work centers radical care, resili­ence, and commu­nity.

Die Veran­stal­tung wird aus Mitteln des Hessi­schen Aktions­plans für Akzep­tanz und Vielfalt geför­dert.
